We all know it. There's that one fish at the LFS that they cannot sell for the life of them, and it just won't die. So, each time you go back, they still have it. Anybody else feel this way, or is it just me? I'll start:

A. Modestus that's been there for like 8 months
RTGG Apparently nobody w/ a MFtank since I went to the store a long time ago...
and a Chinese Algae Eater that's not for sale b/c it's impossible to catch it in the 240 Gallon

Anybody else? ;)

There is a lfs near me that has a gulper cat. They've had it for a couple of months now. They just have "Gulper cat - rare!" on the tank, and if you ask how much it is, you'll get a price between $350 and $550. I think they will have a hard time selling it since you kinda have to be a fish retard (like me) to want that ugly fish, and most people would rather buy the $15 RTC.

my LFS has a "cobra stingray" thats been there for months, and wont sell.

maybe its cuz it looks like a retic without that long black tail, or that they want $399 for it

Actually 350 for a Gulper Cat is pretty standard. There was one at the only good lfs near me that was for 300 and that was the best deal I've seen on one.
